Gemstones - Tell Me Why lyrics

[Hook: Vanilla Ice] Tell my why we all live and die Why some people try suicide Why do children have to fight for their lives Tell my why Tell my why Why do priests molest a child Why does war have to be so wild Why do all politicians lie Tell my why tell my why [Verse 1: Vanilla Ice] Well its a mad mad world that we're living in today Hypnotize people remember Heaven's Gate Marshal Applewhite with the ma** suicide Thinking the Hale-Bopp will take them to the afterlife Well that's f**ed up just like 9-11 Mohammed Atta didn't even have a gun Seventy-two virgin wives going through his brain k**ed 5,000 Americans, healed the pain Brainwashed by Osama Bin Laden Terrorized the world, sh** will never be forgotten Like Jack the ripper back in day k**ing innocent people sending them straight to their graves How about Jeffery Dahmer and Ted Bundy too Three serial k**ers out there, to name a few What the f** is our future really going to be Will we see world peace or will we see catastrophe [Hook: Vanilla Ice] [Verse 2: Gemini] I don't know but sometime I feel I don't know Exactly how this world's goin to go I'm Watching my TV screen And I can't believe what I'm seeing half the time Politicians lying with their big fake smiles in Children dying leaving momma's crying And molestations involving clergymen What the f** is happenin I'm kinda glad that I'm not a father I'm a k** a mother f**er if they touch my son or my daughter If I have a seed they supposed to bury me Not me bury them but that's not how it always how it is Uh-uh I think twice now about having a child And bringing 'em into a world that's chaotically wild Oh I ask why it got be this way but no one answers And I ain't got none so the problems remain So I say [Hook: Vanilla Ice] [Verse 3: Zeno) d**h becomes us We came from dust I can't let the ways of the world come and run us Like d** and women What's the reason for sinning I was promised eternal life from the beginning But look at Bush and his brother Look at Clinton and lover Kids on the street living foul without they mother He wasn't gay He went to pray He got touched by the priest John Lennon said that's when he was yelling for peace Halloween life full of tricks and treats I put the world on my shoulders Now they beggin' for peace It can all be gone in a New York second Perfect example September 11th It's a church cover-up They hold me in water Learn to respect a women when I had my daughter They're your idol Your highest title Like Kurt Cobain Kids mix the black tar with the c**aine Drinking liquor to ease the pain Like blood stains on the shirt sh** I hope I remain Tell my why [Hook: Vanilla Ice]
